what is sound and what is nature of sound
Answers
Answer:
Sound is a type of energy made by vibrations.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Sound in air (and any fluid medium) are longitudinal waves. In sound waves, particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrates parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves.⠀⠀
A vibration that propagates as an audible wave of pressure, through a medium such as a gas, liquid or solid.

The sound produced by a guitar is different from the sound produced by a drum. This is because the sound produced by different sources have different characteristics. Sound can be characterized by its frequency, wavelength, and amplitude.
Frequency of sound
The number of rarefactions and compressions that occur per unit time is known as the frequency of a sound wave.
Wavelength of sound
The distance between the successive compression and rarefaction is known as the wavelength of a sound wave.
Amplitude of sound
The amplitude of the sound is the magnitude of the maximum disturbance in a sound wave.Physicists have identified the audio frequency spectrum of the human ear to be between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz.
Speed of Sound
The speed at which sound waves propagate through a medium is known as the speed of sound.
